    kochiu,

    I am in the exact same situation as you. I just came back from Canada last month.

    Please send me a message if you want to come out for a drink this weekend. I can share my experience with you.

    no worres my friend! I was at the same step, I graduated from U of Arizona in Engineer Management and Industria Engineer and no experience, so I tried jobsdb.com and the interview in Hong Kong's company aren't as professional as the US, also they really love people who from somewhere else. And right now is a great time for job hunt, good luck!

    I agree for someone with your majors jobsdb.com is a wealth of potential career growth opportunities. However, I caution on stating the same career opportunities in the Finance industry equates to similar when using jobsdb.com

    kochui, just to clarify i was referring that for dcyuen's majors jobsdb is a great source but in your earlier post you expressed finance area. i suggest looking at other possibilities as i would use a sense of caution on stating the same career opportunities in the Finance industry equates to similar when using jobsdb.com

    Try directly apply from bank's or firms' web site, be consistent like to check the status weekly, be passionate and possitive, you are American so you should know what i'm saying j/k
    O yeah from jobsdb.com sometimes you might come across job posts from job agency so there you go, send them and email or something. good luck
